Becky has been looking after our little boy for nearly three years. We are so glad we found her. She is caring and her setting has a lovely family feel to it. She keeps us updated with pictures and messages and takes them on so many different adventures; to playgroups, the beach, soft play and many more, providing excellent learning opportunities for the children. Our son loves going there and it is invaluable as a parent feeling at ease leaving him in her care. Would highly recommend Becky’s House!

Becky has been caring for our children for the past six years, and she has truly been a blessing to our family. Her dedication and warmth have made her an integral part of our lives. Our children look forward to each day with her, and in all this time, there hasn't been a single morning when they weren't excited to go to her home. This level of enthusiasm speaks volumes about the genuine care and nurturing environment Becky provides.
As a working parent with the NHS, I depend on flexibility, and Becky has gone above and beyond to support us in this regard. She has been incredibly accommodating, allowing me to focus on my work knowing my children are in safe, loving hands. During school holidays, she organises activities and often plans exciting day trips, creating wonderful experiences for the children to cherish.
As our eldest prepares for senior school in 2026, they have expressed their desire to continue spending time with Becky—a true testament to her positive impact on their lives. We wholeheartedly recommend Becky to any parents seeking a kind, reliable, and devoted childminder. We are endlessly grateful for everything she has done for our children and for the peace of mind she has given us.
Thank you, Becky, for being such an incredible support and for making a difference in our lives

My daughter has been going to Becky’s house since she was a year old. It has been such a lovely experience from the start. Becky is so wonderful with the kids, they love being there and feel like part of the family. Becky’s experience was invaluable when it came to things like potty training. I would recommend Becky to anyone looking for a nurturing, supportive child minder.

Our son has been looked after by Becky for over two years now, but it’s telling that we as a family still talk about how lucky we feel to have found her. Becky truly goes above and beyond, providing stimulating play and learning opportunities but also taking an interest in who every child is as a person. Our son sees Becky’s house as a home-from-home, and as working parents the peace of mind that provides is truly invaluable. We would (and frequently do) recommend Becky to any other parents in the area looking for a childminder.
